What we are
The AHRC Research Centre at Edinburgh Uni is working on, amongst other projects, an exploration of the links between IP, competition and human rights, and the extent to which this can be used to address perceived (and likely justifiable) concerns arising from the power of IP rights - at least in the hands of multinational corporations.
Our aim is to develop a solution/strategy which is theoretically valid but which is also likely to work in the real world of international commerce, innovation and creativity.
We held a very successful experts meeting in December 2004. The papers from this will be published shortly in the online journal SCRIPT-ed. Further meetings and conferences are planned for 2005 and 2006.
But most of all what we want to do is draw together work, thoughts and concerns from differing fields, all related to the power and impact of IP, and see how these can be combined in our project. So ALL comments and suggestions very much welcomed.
